Snacks / Starters

Page 1 of 1

I often serve snacks or starters before a main course. I like salads and bruschetta as they are light and go well with almost anything. I don't like heavy starters as if I eat them I won't have any room for the main course. This is the reason I often order starters for main course at restaurants, my stomach simply is very, very small. I don't know how many times I have ordered both a starter and a main course only to have my husband say to me: "You will NEVER eat both". In all fairness he is always, always right!

Just before you shake your head in disgust, keep in mind that the tomato sauce I use is NOT the usual, disgusting, red sauce (sometimes called ketchup, filled with additives and sugar) that many people buy and put on everything, especially on children's food.
